What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Healthsource Chiropractic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the list of approved suppliers is found within the Operations Manual. Franchisees are required to lease or purchase various items, including the clinic location, leasehold improvements, computer and office equipment, x-ray equipment, fixtures, furnishings, decor, signage, insurance, inventory, clothing, branding, advertising and marketing materials, grand opening kit, training, supplies, programs, and other services, all under the specifications set forth in the Operations Manual.

Healthsource Chiropractic franchisees must acquire these items only from approved suppliers or designees.

It is important to note that Healthsource Chiropractic or its affiliates may be approved suppliers for certain items.
Prospective franchisees should consult the Operations Manual carefully to understand the approved suppliers list and the specifications for all required purchases. Compliance with these requirements is essential, as failure to purchase from approved suppliers can render a franchisee ineligible for renewal and may lead to termination of the franchise agreement.
